MOBILE PHONE UNLOCK

[enjay]

Not real savvy on this subject. I have purchased a Huawei mobile phone supposedly unlocked. Not sure if it is my fault but when I received it i went in and updated phone as it had not been used for quite some time. Seller assures me that it was unlocked. I have no reason to disbelieve. Question is :- Is there any simple way of unlocking phone for use on other carriers.
Thanks.

If it is locked, the carrier it is locked too has to unlock it. If it was originally purchased on a plan and that plan hasn’t expired, then you might have a problem. If the carrier has to unlock it, they usually give you a few codes to put in the phone and it unlocks automatically.

If it was purchased on its own, not on a plan, then it should be unlocked and free to use on any network.

Thanks for that information. Will take it from there.
